Thats... literally why good players play in the preseason. So they don't suck the first 3 weeks of the season losing games they shouldn't. It matters.
If you get hurt week 1 you probably miss more meaningful games than if you got hurt in preseason. What about getting hurt during practice? That happens too. Should we bubble wrap everyone until the game starts so no one gets hurt?
Theres always risk and fluke accidents and rotten bad luck. It doesn't matter if it happens in preseason or week 1.
